I own a Starlight StarScan 4800 (some say it is made by Ultimate, but I'm not sure) with FCC-ID: ITEUECMT3. It is connected to my printer-port (LPT1 in Window$, so I guess it's /dev/lpt0 in FreeBSD?) It used to work with Window$ 95 (as a TWAIN-scanner or something). I have quite a knowledge about PC's, but not so much about scanners, so that is why I'm asking it :) I installed sane and xsane and the man-page told me something I didn't get about PINT and such, but even after heavy google-crawling I didn't make it. Can any of you help me out? Or at least tell me how to configure sane, pint, xsane etc for use with Plug-and-Pray-scanners on this port? thnx, Fi-Ji To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
